Chapter 11.5, Problem 17E

To determine

To calculate : the value of $\frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}$

Answer to Problem 17E

The value of $\frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}$ is $\frac{m^4}{2}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information :

The question is:

  $\frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}$

Calculation : To simplify the provided fraction by dividing out the common factors

Therefore,

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}=\frac{m^2·m^2}{2}\\ \frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}=\frac{m^4}{2}\end{array}$

So, the value of $\frac{3m^4·m^2}{6m^2}$ is $\frac{m^4}{2}$
